A strong wind approaching level 8 swept through the entire Luojing City, with strong air currents roaring in every corner inside and outside the city.
A stable city.
Turbulent mountains.
All the trees on the mountain were roaring at the same time driven by the strong wind. The large forest was roaring, and the broken branches and drifting leaves were blown to the gloomy sky by the wind. Looking at the mountain forest from a high place, the sea of forests occupying the entire field of vision was blown by the wind.
It keeps rising and falling, as if it is about to overturn the entire mountain.
The lights are on in the villa on the top of the mountain.
Soft light shines on the huge white jade coffee table in the living room, and the light is soft and delicate.
Dongcheng Hanguang and Dongcheng Wudi, father and son, sat opposite each other.
There was an invitation on the coffee table between the two of them, with red letters on a black background, which had a strong visual impact.
The wind blew against the simple and complicated window lattice, making a whistling sound.
In the oppressive and silent living room, Dongcheng Hanguang and Dongcheng Wudi quietly looked at the invitations on the coffee table. They had been silent for a long time.
This is an invitation letter jointly signed by Sky Academy and Deep Sea Academy.
A month later, for the final exercise of the two chambers, Marshal Dongcheng Invincible, who is now the director of the Central Continent Policy Bureau, the executive director of the military department, and the commander of the Frontier Corps, was specially invited to attend.
Every time there is a final exercise between the two houses, military wealthy families like the Dongcheng family will receive invitations.
But this time, the invitation placed on the coffee table held an extraordinary weight.
Dongcheng Wudi narrowed his eyes and looked at the invitation, his eyes flashing with a sharp cold light.
The invitation letter arrived in the morning. It was not sent to the military building in Youzhou, but was delivered directly to the Dongcheng family headquarters.
In less than three hours, Dongcheng Wudi flew directly from Youzhou back to the Central Plains, without even having time to have lunch.
Dongcheng Wudi is still waiting.
Waiting for the information you need.
The final exercises of the two houses are a big event throughout Zhongzhou, and countless big shots come every time.
During the last exercise, a director of the decision-making bureau, two military marshals, and the Grand Elder of Kunlun City, Gu Qianchuan, were present in person.
The students of this class are far superior to the previous class in both strength and status, and the situation will be even more lively when the time comes.
Invitation letter sent.
Whether you want to go or not, you have to reply.
Dongcheng Wudi is waiting for replies from all parties.
This is information, but it is not classified, so it is not difficult to obtain this information.
Dongcheng Wudi looked at the invitation letter in front of him in silence.
The invitation letter is very thin.
But how much it weighs depends on the replies and responses from various parties.
The wind outside the window is stronger.
The strong air flow roared in the mountains, bringing with it a harsh and harsh sound.
There is no rain in the Central Plains today.
But the shrill wind made the Central Plains seem extremely cold in early summer.
Dongcheng Hanguang stood up and walked to the window, looking down at the rolling mountains and forests outside the window.
Large leaves and branches rose and fell with the wind, and the strong wind passed by, leaving a mess.
The early summer for the Dongcheng family was vaguely bleak.
The old man's tired sigh and the ringtone of his cell phone rang at the same time.
Dongcheng's cold light turned around.
Dongcheng Wudi took out his mobile phone and answered the call.
"Commander, we've checked it out."
On the phone, Lei Shen's voice rang. In the Dongcheng family, Lei Shen ostensibly plays the role of Dongcheng's invincible personal guard, similar to the captain of the guard, but in fact he secretly controls all the intelligence power of the Dongcheng family and is one of the most core figures.
one.
Dongcheng Wudi hummed and said calmly: "How is it?"
The wind outside the window became more and more fierce.
Dongcheng Hanguang looked at his son who answered the phone quietly.
Amidst the sharp whistling sound, Thor's stern and clear report was dull and clear, and Dongcheng Wudi's face gradually became solemn and gloomy.
Thor spoke for a full five minutes.
Dongcheng Wudi listened silently, then hummed and hung up the phone.
Dongcheng Hanguang walked over and said in a tired voice: "How?"
Dongcheng Wudi frowned, thought for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "We have received replies from all parties. Wang Tianzong and Gu Xingyun have both confirmed that they will personally attend the exercises of the two academies. In addition, the major martial arts forces,
Representatives from major special operations organizations will also attend."
Dongcheng Hanguang raised his eyebrows: "Which council member will attend this time?"
"There has been no meeting to discuss this issue."
Dongcheng Wudi shook his head: "If there are no accidents, it should be Chen Fangqing, and it is possible that the president may even be present in person."
Chen Fangqing.
If the Prime Minister of Zhongzhou Cabinet and the current flagship figure of the Prince Group were to attend the exercise in person, together with Wang Tianzong and Gu Xingyun, the scene of this exercise between the two houses would be almost the same as the first final exercise when the two houses were first established.
The scenes were comparable.
The most important ones are Wang Tianzong, Gu Xingyun, and Chen Fangqing.
When these three people arrived at the scene, they were equivalent to the Southeast Group, the Special Operations Group and the Prince Group were completely connected. Isn't this a determination?
"Is Tianlan going to be okay?"
Dongcheng Hanguang was silent for a while and suddenly asked.
Dongcheng Wudi's hand holding the phone trembled, and he didn't speak for a long time.
This is a question that doesn't need an answer at all.
The final exercise of the two houses seemed to be a competition between the younger generations, but with the return of Li Tianlan, Wang Shengxiao and Gu Hanshan joined the Shadow and Three Thousand Realms respectively, and this has become a battlefield for the confrontation between the major forces in Central Continent.
Behind Wang Shengxiao are Southeast Group and Beihai Wang Family.
Behind Guhan Mountain are the Special Operations Group and Kunlun City.
Behind Li Tianlan are wealthy groups and the City of Sighs.
These are three young prodigies from Central Continent who can securely achieve invincibility. If their identities were not sensitive, this final exercise would not be so lively.
The war in the dark world is escalating almost every day.
Under such circumstances, Wang Tianzong and Gu Xingyun decided to go to the exercise site in person.
Behind this decision, everyone can clearly smell the deep and rich murderous intent.
Gu Hanshan and Wang Shengxiao joined Three Thousand Realms and Shadow respectively after Li Tianlan returned.
They may also become rivals.
But the biggest opponent is undoubtedly Li Tianlan.
With the main force of Donghuang Palace completely seriously injured, Li Tianlan, whose reputation is even higher than theirs, will definitely become the target of Wang Shengxiao and Gu Hanshan.
Wang Tianzong and Gu Xingyun appeared in person to suppress everything with their powerful strength and power.
They just wanted to see Li Tianlan die on the training ground in person.
Will Tianlan be okay?
There is no need to answer this question.
Dongcheng Wudi didn't dare to answer.
"What are you going to do?"
Dongcheng Hanguang was silent for a while and then asked softly.
The old man's voice was still calm, but behind this calmness were suppressed countless complex emotions.
"I will go to the scene myself."
Dongcheng Wudi said in a deep voice.
Dongcheng Hanguang looked at him, just watching quietly. In Dongcheng's invincible eyes, he saw determination.
but...
"is that useful?"
Dongcheng Hanguang asked.
Dongcheng Wudi rubbed the phone in his hand and calmed down his mind: "The two highnesses from Sigh City will also be at the scene by then."
"is that useful?"
Dongcheng Hanguang still has the same problem.
The first question is just a question.
The second problem is a suffocating pressure that makes people unable to breathe.
This is also a question that does not require an answer.
In the face of absolute force.
Besides more powerful force, what else would be useful?
"Dad, I have confidence in Tianlan. Even if he can't win the final exercise, it shouldn't be difficult for him to protect himself."
Dongcheng Wudi said in a hoarse voice: "And I really don't believe it anymore. Do Gu Xingyun and Wang Tianzong really dare to shamelessly attack him personally? After all, Mr. Li is still here."
"Mr. Li...this is what I'm most worried about."
Dongcheng Hanguang said softly: "The existence of Mr. Li is the reason why Wang Tianzong and Gu Xingyun attach great importance to Tianlan. Mr. Li is in a very bad state now, but he is extremely strong. No matter the Wang family in Beihai or Kunlun City, they don't want to anger them.
He, but don't want to and can't are two different things. Perhaps any of their two families will pay a heavy price when meeting Mr. Li, but if the two families really join forces to destroy the Li family, even if there is still a loss, it is not impossible.
Accept the loss.”
"Will they really join forces?"
Dongcheng Wudi's expression was extremely exciting: "How is this possible?"
"nothing is impossible."
Dongcheng Hanguang said calmly: "They didn't join forces before because Mr. Li didn't have much time after all, and they didn't really take Tianlan to heart, so even if both parties had intentions, there was no reason."
"To put it simply, they don't think Tianlan is a threat, so they just wait for Mr. Li to die. The so-called Li family will naturally disappear with a wave of their hands."
"But what if Tianlan is so powerful that they feel threatened?"
Dongcheng Hanguang suddenly asked.
Dongcheng Wudi's expression changed.
Li Tianlan will be so powerful that Wang Tianzong and Gu Xingyun will feel threatened...
No telling how much this might be.
As long as this possibility exists, the consequences will become unpredictable.
"I have a hunch."
At this moment, Dongcheng Hanguang suddenly remembered the mysterious death of Master Wuwei and the resurrection of Li Tianlan three years ago. He couldn't tell what his mood was, but he just had a vague premonition.
His voice became worried because of this premonition: "Maybe everyone doesn't pay enough attention to Tianlan now. In the final exercise, this kid may surprise everyone. I'm not worried that he is too weak, I'm worried about him
Too strong. In my opinion, it is best for him to lose this exercise before he can barely protect himself. If he wins...his strength will give Wang Tianzong and Gu Xingyun a real reason to join forces. They are like that
Once a person really makes up his mind and is willing to pay the price, Mr. Li can't stop him, and neither can we."
Dongcheng Wudi finally smiled bitterly.
"Tianlan can't lose."
he said.
He didn't even need to communicate with Li Tianlan about this issue.
The consequences of winning may be serious, but Li Tianlan cannot afford the consequences of losing either.
Once he loses the final exercise, even if Sky Academy is still willing to give Li Tianlan a chance, Wang Tianzong and Gu Xingyun will not continue to agree to Li Tianlan staying in school.
And what if I stay in school?
In the exercise three years later, Li Tianlan would still be unable to win.
Once the outcome is like this, the Donghuang Palace may be disbanded immediately. Li Tianlan has lost his foundation. Even if he is the young city lord of Sigh City, even if he has the support of the Dongcheng family, his path to rise will become extremely difficult. The best ending
, maybe it is just like the City of Sighs, huddled in the northeast.
So now, Li Tianlan is advancing and never retreating. No matter what difficulties he faces, he must move forward.
From the moment he first appeared at Sky Academy, he had no way out.
"It's better to let him develop in the military."
Dongcheng Hanguang said.
"it's useless."
Dongcheng Wudi shook his head: "I know what he planned. That kid is probably afraid of owing us too many favors, or he doesn't want to implicate us, so he can't come to the military."
Dongcheng Hanguang nodded, hummed and said, "So again, what are you going to do?"
Dongcheng Wudi trembled in his heart and subconsciously raised his head to look at Dongcheng Hanguang.
Dongcheng Hanguang's eyes were calm and deep, and in his eyes, he saw the same determination as Dongcheng Wudi.
But Dongcheng Wudi hesitated a little.
The phone rang again.
A strange number appeared on Dongcheng Wudi's mobile phone.
He raised his eyebrows, answered the phone, and said hello.
"Commander Dongcheng?"
On the phone, a low and pleasant male voice sounded, smooth and calm.
"I am."
Dongcheng Wudi responded and said calmly: "Who are you?"
"I am a military advisor."
The male voice on the phone chuckled.
military adviser...
Palace of Reincarnation, Military Advisor!
Dongcheng Wudi was suddenly startled, glanced at his father, turned on the loudspeaker of his mobile phone, and said calmly: "What's the matter?"
Don't talk about reincarnation kings like military advisors.
After the decisive battle in Tiandu, the Palace of Reincarnation withdrew from Central Continent. In three years, the Dongcheng family did not even have contact with the cats and dogs in the Palace of Reincarnation.
"The Palace Master wants to borrow something from the Marshal."
The military advisor spoke in a gentle tone.
Dongcheng Hanguang and Dongcheng Wuhui glanced at each other: "What is it?"
"The palace master wants a batch of 'Styx', about twenty copies. I wonder if the commander can bear the pain and part with it?"
The military advisor's voice became deeper and gentler.
River Styx.
It turned out to be the River Styx!
Dongcheng Hanguang suddenly stood up.
He stared at the phone, as if he had seen a ghost.
"The Dongcheng family has your people!"
Dongcheng Wudi gritted his teeth, but his mind had already begun filtering the list of some core figures in the Dongcheng family's secret arsenal.
Styx is the latest research result of the Dongcheng family. It is not a firearm, but a liquid biological bomb. Its main effect is that it is extremely corrosive and neurotoxin. It can be regarded as a biochemical weapon. A portion of Styx is about 500 grams, but once detonated,
But it is enough to turn an area of nearly 100 meters into a dead zone. Even the top masters of the Thunder Realm cannot withstand the explosion area of the Styx for long.
The most important thing is that Styx has only been around for two months and is still in the debugging stage. Few people in the entire Dongcheng family know about it.
Even Dongcheng Wuwu, who is currently developing a new generation of armor alloys, doesn't know about the existence of Styx.
Styx, a liquid bomb full of destruction and destruction aesthetics, is a cutting-edge technology developed by several weapons experts that the Dongcheng family worked hard to find and spent several years on. How could the Samsara Palace know about the Dongcheng family's research so quickly?
Results?
Dongcheng Wudi flashed several lists of people who knew about the existence of the Styx bomb in his mind.
No matter how you look at it, it is impossible for them to betray the Dongcheng family and leak such secrets.
"The commander misunderstood."
The military advisor smiled and said: "We only knew about this incident accidentally, so we took the liberty to borrow some. Don't worry, Commander, the Reincarnation Palace can be enemies with anyone, but it will always be friends with the Dongcheng family.
.”
Dongcheng Wudi took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
He stared at the phone for a long time, and then slowly said: "Why should I lend you the Styx? The Dongcheng family currently has about twenty copies of the Styx in stock."
"For Li Tianlan's future."
The military advisor said very softly.
This reason is very simple, but it is so sufficient that Dongcheng Wudi cannot refuse it.
His expression changed, and after a long while, he sneered: "Does Tianlan still have a future?"
"certainly."
The military advisor's tone was affirmative: "There is no need to doubt this."
"Really? What if Gu Xingyun and Wang Tianzong want to personally take action at the final exercise site? Will your palace master help?"
Dongcheng Wudi sneered.
The military advisor was silent for a while, and after a while, he calmly said: "Commander, don't worry, Tianlan will be fine. Even if Wang Tianzong and Gu Xingyun want to take action, they must have a chance."
"I can't tell you more. I can only say that the Styx River is very important to our plan and Tianlan's future. If the commander is willing to give up the Styx River, I will send someone to the Dongcheng family to get it in person in three days."
The military advisor finished speaking quietly and hung up the phone without waiting for Dongcheng Wudi's reply.
Just as the phone hung up, it rang again, and the connection was extremely hurried.
Dongcheng Wudi didn't even have time to communicate with Dongcheng Hanguang. He glanced at the number with some annoyance and immediately connected.
"Big... handsome..."
On the phone, a voice that sounded a little stuttering due to excitement sounded.
"What's up?"
Dongcheng Wudi was a little surprised.
"Bai...Secretary Bai is here."
A voice that kept taking deep breaths came from the phone: "They have gone up the mountain, you should pick up."
"Qingqian?"
A flash of loneliness flashed in Dongcheng Wudi's eyes.
"Yes, it's two secretaries Bai, they're both here."
Dongcheng Wudi didn't react for a while. Just when he was about to ask where the two white secretaries came from, Dongcheng Hanguang's expression suddenly changed.
"Two secretaries Bai? Bai Zhanfang?!"
"right."
The report on the phone was clear and straightforward: "That's City Lord Bai."
Dongcheng Hanguang's father and son both changed their colors at the same time.
The two looked at each other, put on their coats, and walked out of the villa directly.
The wind howled on the top of the mountain.
In the sight of the father and son, a black Audi with a Youzhou license plate was slowly going up the mountain along the mountain road.
Two white secretaries...
Dongcheng Wudi and Dongcheng Hanguang both looked bitter.
They all know who is coming this time. There are only two Secretaries Bai in the entire Bai family.
One is Bai Qingqian, the number one figure in the Guandong Province.
The other one is Bai Qingqian's father, a member of the Central Continent Policy Bureau and the top leader in Youzhou, Bai Zhanfang!
This is Dongcheng Hanguang's old friend and Dongcheng's invincible father-in-law.
In their memories, Bai Zhanfang seemed to have only been here once in the past twenty years, and that was when Dong Chengru was just born.
Later, as Bai Qingqian completely broke up with the Dongcheng family, the interactions between the Bai family and the Dongcheng family became increasingly indifferent. Now, apart from advancing and retreating together politically, they have almost lost contact in private.
Now the patriarch of the Bai family has come to the Central Plains in person. Although it is silent, Dongcheng Wudi can clearly feel that the other party's coming is not good.
Audi climbed up slowly in the biting mountain wind.
Finally, he stopped in front of Dongcheng Hanguang and Dongcheng Wudi.
Dongcheng Wudi wanted to open the car door himself.
But Dongcheng Hanguang, who looked a little unnatural, took a step forward and opened the Audi door with his own hands.
The graceful and noble Bai Qingqian stepped out of the car with brisk steps. Her bright smile seemed to light up the gloomy sky in an instant and disperse the strong wind.
"Dad, what are you doing? If others see it and think I am unfilial, Wu Di will definitely scold me at night."
Bai Qingqian stood in front of Dongcheng Hanguang in a clean and tidy women's suit, with a rosy face and seemed a little embarrassed.
Dongcheng Hanguang was stunned on the spot.
He seemed to have lost all reaction and just looked quietly at Bai Qingqian, who had a gentle and well-behaved smile in front of him.
Such a daughter-in-law is very strange to him, yet very familiar to him.
This is Bai Qingqian twenty years ago.
It was Bai Qingqian before she broke up with the Dongcheng family.
At that time, she and the Dongcheng Wudi couple were loving, respectful, well-behaved and gentle. She was the most popular young lady in the Dongcheng family.
The cold light in Dongcheng was in a trance, and at this moment, the haze of more than twenty years seemed like a dream.
"Old leader, long time no see."
A gentle voice sounded in Dongcheng Hanguang's ears.
Dongcheng Hanguang suddenly came back to his senses.
Standing in front of him was a little old man in ordinary clothes.
The old man is slightly short in stature, has some faint age spots on his face, wears ordinary clothes, and has no aura about him. He looks like an ordinary farmer who lives his life guarding two acres of farmland.
But no one in the entire Central Continent dared to look down upon this little old man.
In the past twenty years, he has been elected to the policy bureau for four consecutive terms and has occupied the top position in Youzhou for fifteen years. Although Bai Zhanfang has never advanced, he has never retreated. He has become stronger with age. In fifteen years, his influence
The power has penetrated into every aspect of Youzhou. Privately, Bai Zhanfang even has the heart-wrenching nickname of Youzhou City Lord. This title alone is enough to show the terror of the old man.
Dongcheng Hanguang smiled bitterly, held Bai Zhanfang's hand tightly, and said with emotion: "Zhanfang, how long has it been since we last met? Why do you suddenly want to come to the Central Plains this time?"
"Qing Qian was thinking about your birthday, so she went back to Youzhou to drag me here. In order to choose a birthday gift for you, she walked around Youzhou for three days before she found one she was satisfied with. You are celebrating your birthday this year, and I always have to come in person.
Happy birthday."
Bai Zhanfang smiled and said.
"Okay."
Bai Qingqian took two steps forward, and then Dongcheng Wudi gently took his arm with a look of astonishment in his eyes, and said with a smile: "We are all family members, don't stand outside and be polite. It's windy, let's go in and talk.
"
She looked at Dongcheng Wudi, who was still a little dull, and said with a soft smile: "Is there any food at home? I will cook tonight and make some delicious food for you and dad. I have been at home these days, and I will be at home in a few days.
Return to Guanzhong."
Dongcheng Wudi looked at his wife quietly as if he were before.
Bai Qingqian's performance is gentle and natural.
But deep in her eyes there was only peace.
Dongcheng Wudi's heart kept sinking and sinking again.
"Qing Qian, you..."
He opened his mouth.
Bai Qingqian suddenly shook her head and said softly: "No need to say more, you know why I came, and I know what you are going to say. In this case, don't say it, so as not to ruin everyone's mood."
She entered the villa with Dongcheng Wudi on her arm.
Her body is very soft and warm.
But Dongcheng Wudi suddenly felt that the air around him was bitingly cold, and the coldness penetrated into his bones bit by bit, almost making him unable to breathe.
"I am a useless woman, but I always want to do something. Although I don't know the final result, as long as I do everything I should do, it will be enough."
Bai Qingqian whispered: "Are you right?"
Dongcheng Wudi was speechless for a moment.
At this moment, he completely understood Bai Qingqian's intention.
She is extremely gentle now.
But this was her most intense and decisive reaction in more than 20 years.
There is still one month left for the final exercises between the two houses.
When Li Tianlan's future was uncertain and his life and death were unclear.
She came to the Dongcheng family with the most gentle and filial attitude.
Such a gesture could be a new beginning.
It may also be the most complete end.
Dongcheng Wudi looked at Bai Qingqian.
Bai Qingqian has an elegant posture.
Dongcheng Wudi saw the madness, the madness that was weak but powerful enough to burn everything.
At this moment he completely understood.
If something unexpected happens to Li Tianlan in a month,
Bai Qingqian would not ask the reason at all.
Whenever something unexpected happens.
Him and her.
Bai family and Dongcheng family.
will become an enemy.
The relentless enemy!
So gentle, yet so decisive.
